Meta will charge advertisers a location fee of 2% to 5% to cover digital service taxes imposed by some countries. The move, following similar steps by Google and Amazon, passes tax costs to advertisers and should limit direct margin impact for Meta while modestly raising ad costs in affected markets. Monitor ad demand in high-DST jurisdictions for potential pressure on volumes and regional revenue mix.
